Everton boss David Moyes has admitted he would think about selling Wayne Rooney if a club offered £50m for him.

Speculation linking the 18-year-old with a move to Manchester United or Chelsea has raged in the wake of his four goals for England at Euro 2004.

Moyes told the Everton website: "I think if somebody came in with £50m, everybody in the country would be saying that we'd be right to take it.

"I'd be lying if I said there wasn't a price on everybody's head - there is."

Moyes added: "I can only say that we've got no intentions of selling Wayne just now, unless I get told by the board that we have to or unless Wayne tells me that he doesn't want to play for Everton anymore.

"One of the things I said when I came to this club is, 'I
don't want to sell my best players', and as far as I'm
concerned, we're not in the business of selling."

Moyes also admitted he was unhappy with England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson's comments that he would call Rooney's agent if he was a club manager.

"First of all, I would expect the manager of England to
know the rules and know that it is illegal to do that,
because the player is under contract," said Moyes.

He is a phenomenal talent and the prospect of him pulling on a United shirt is frightening

"£30m looks to me a very high price for any player in the world, but I don't look at players from the money point of view. I look at the player and the interesting thing about Rooney is the player he could become."

But Wenger ruled out a move by his club, saying: "We have the strikers we need and are not in the market."
